Beyhadh actor Piyush Sahdev held for rape; a 23-year-old woman had lodged a complaint against him

Mumbai: Beyhadh actor Piyush Sahdev has been arrested on rape charges. According to media reports the actor, who played Samay on the show, was held on November 22, after a 23-year-old woman filed an FIR against him for raping her.
Now, Piyush’s sister Meher Vij, who acted in Secret Superstar, has reacted to the reports. The actress said that she didn’t know anything about the charges and was informed about the whole thing after reading various reports. “I got to know this from you.
When did this happen? I don’t know anything at all,” a leading English daily quoted the actress as saying.
“You know I haven’t been able to get in touch with my father so I too do not know anything about this news. Actually, Piyush and I haven’t been in touch at all ever since he got married. His wife had some issues so I chose to back off. Whatever contact we have had, has been only through our father,” Meher added.
Meanwhile, the actor’s former wife also claimed that she had no clue about the news. Piyush’s estranged wife Akangsha Rawat told another leading English daily, “I am not in touch with Piyush for almost 4 months, we separated six months ago, so I have no idea if this news is true.”
An FIR has been lodged against the actor in the Versova Police Station, Mumbai.
